Incidental Chiari 1 Malformation - Yet Another Intra-Operative Cause for Bradycardia: A Case Report

Abstract

Chiari 1 malformation is characterized by descent of cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. Most patients are asymptomatic or may present with non-specific symptoms. We present a case of 13 years old incidentally detected to have Chiari 1 malformation and developed significant bradycardia in the intra-operative period.
